March Madness Fantasy 2016 - Round of 64 Results

Let's briefly cover the First Four games. Luke and Chuck each lost a player with Tulsa's loss; Shaq Harrison gave Luke 53.5 in the loss, and Chuck got 27 from James Woodard.

Luke also had Shocker Ron Baker, who got 39.5 in a win, and Gav got his backcourt partner VanVleet's 38.

The real stud of the play-in round was the Ragin' Haitian Marc-Eddy Norelia, given to Brian as a fun punishment, who stacked up 53 big ones.

Now, on to the round of 64!

Cal deserves mentioning. Three Cal players were drafted, including Tyrone Wallace, who broke his hand on Thursday. Unfortunately none of us noticed, so Brian earned zero points for that player. On the bright side, that's better than Chuck's Cal player, Jaylen Brown, whose 7 turnovers resulted in him earning negative one point before he fouled out. Chuck had more bad news from two other players - Graham only had 9 points despite Kansas' 100-point game, and Xavier's main man only got 13. Bob's Cinci guy was also a big pile of crap in their loss.

Shawn's Arkansas Little Rock player and Chris' Zag foreigner were the top point scorers, and both moved on to the round of 32.

Luke and Gavin are currently leading the way, sitting pretty with 6 and 7 players remaining. Chuck and Chris took the most damage, and have only 4 players left.

This stacked bar chart I worked so hard on is going to look bad the whole tournament, because of that Cal injury and that other Cal guy who was actually a worse pick than the injured guy.

As expected at this moment, the high seed players and their 1.5x multiplier are performing better than the 1-7 seed players.

FREE AGENTS YOU SHOULD HAVE DRAFTED

Two-time Southland Conference POY Thomas Walkup was the greatest man no one drafted. Perhaps because he was drafted last year and got bounced in the first round by Utah?
